Product Overview

Tag	N/A
Host Species	Human
Synonym	23-219aa (IL12A) / 23-328aa (IL12B), Interleukin 12 (subunit beta/alpha), IL12 His, NKSF1, NKSF, CTL maturation factor (TCMF), Cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor (CLMF), TSF, Edodekin-alpha, IL-12.
Background	interleukin 12 subunit beta/alpha or IL12b/IL12a is a growth factor cytokine which increases the lytic activity of NK/lymphokine-activated killer cells, activated T and NK cells and prompt IFN-gamma production (through resting PBMC). IL12b/IL12a is an essential part to the process of cellular-immunity and activates the differentiation of Th1 cells originates from the precursor T helper cells. The protein is linked to IL23A and creates the IL-23 interleukin, by that, the autoimmune inflammation is induced and autoimmune inflammatory diseases and tumorigenesis are being affected.
Description	Interleukin 12 Human Recombinant is a glycosylated heterodimer containing 503a.a. (306a.a. rHuIL-12 p40 and the 197a.a. rHuIL-12 p35 subunits) and having a molecular weight of 60kDa. IL12 is purified by unique purification methods.
Source	Baculovirus
AA Sequence	IL-12 is a heterodimer of IL-12A and IL-12B linked through a disulfide-bond:>IL-12 ARNLPVATP DPGMFPCLHH SQNLLRAVSN MLQKARQTLE FYPCTSEEID HEDITKDKTS TVEACLPLEL TKNESCLNSR ETSFITNGSC LASRKTSFMM ALCLSSIYED LKMYQVEFKT MNAKLLMDPK RQIFLDQNML AVIDELMQAL NFNSETVPQK SSLEEPDFYK TKIKLCILLH AFRIRAVTID RVMSYLNAS.>IL-12BIWELKKDV YVVELDWYPD APGEMVVLTC DTPEEDGITW TLDQSSEVLG SGKTLTIQVK EFGDAGQYTC HKGGEVLSHS LLLLHKKEDG IWSTDILKDQ KEPKNKTFLR CEAKNYSGRF TCWWLTTIST DLTFSVKSSR GSSDPQGVTC GAATLSAERV RGDNKEYEYS VECQEDSACP AAEESLPIEV MVDAVHKLKY ENYTSSFFIR DIIKPDPPKN LQLKPLKNSR QVEVSWEYPD TWSTPHSYFS LTFCVQVQGK SKREKKDRVF TDKTSATVIC RKNASISVRA QDRYYSSSWS EWASVPCS.
Purity	>97.0% as determined by analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin	<1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
Bioactivity	Determined by cell proliferation assay using PHA-stimulated human T lymphoblasts. The ED50 for this effect is 0.01-0.05 ng/mL corresponding to a specific activity of 1.1 x 104 units/μg, which is calibrated against rHuIL-12 WHO Standard.
Formulation	Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.2.
Stability	Recombinant protein is stable for 12 months at -70°C
Usage	For Research Use Only
Storage	Lyophilized Interleukin 12 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution PDGF-BB should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Proteins are sensitive to heat, and freeze-drying can preserve the activity of the majority of proteins. It improves protein stability, extends storage time, and reduces shipping costs. However, freeze-drying can also lead to the loss of the active portion of the protein and cause aggregation and denaturation issues. Nonetheless, these adverse effects can be minimized by incorporating protective agents such as stabilizers, additives, and excipients, and by carefully controlling various lyophilization conditions.

Commonly used protectant include saccharides, polyols, polymers, surfactants, some proteins and amino acids etc. We usually add 8% (mass ratio by volume) of trehalose and mannitol as lyoprotectant. Trehalose can significantly prevent the alter of the protein secondary structure, the extension and aggregation of proteins during freeze-drying process; mannitol is also a universal applied protectant and fillers, which can reduce the aggregation of certain proteins after lyophilization.

Our protein products do not contain carrier protein or other additives (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and sucrose, etc., and when lyophilized with the solution with the lowest salt content, they often cannot form A white grid structure, but a small amount of protein is deposited in the tube during the freeze-drying process, forming a thin or invisible transparent protein layer.

Reminder: Before opening the tube cap, we recommend that you quickly centrifuge for 20-30 seconds in a small centrifuge, so that the protein attached to the tube cap or the tube wall can be aggregated at the bottom of the tube. Our quality control procedures ensure that each tube contains the correct amount of protein, and although sometimes you can't see the protein powder, the amount of protein in the tube is still very precise.
